You guys came on board when ^Tojahh don use head clear bush. Drivers have regard and respect unlike before. Barely any driver that will tell you he have not experienced what I post. Before self one is shy to let people know he does e-hailing because the stigma that was attached to it. I don't do offline and my neighbours know I am the wrong person to call needless for trip. Book a ride and go your way, I've learnt not to bring familiarity to my source of livelihood.

You are in the period of riders begging you not to cancel trips and if you are coming. I doubt if you have ever slept for like 4 hours in search of trips. My brother those days weren't funny, sometimes you go back home feeling so dejected.

Barbiturate:


Yes I get, that's why I said he should check on Gmap before moving. Don't trust the duration on the App.(check the screenshots I posted before)

This is why I like Rida. I can cancel trip immediately after starting trip and seeing the traffic. No charges. Nothing will happen. I will just tell you I'm not going again. If you insist or plead, we will renegotiate.
Try this on bolt, your DS score go dey drop till dem block you. Try on Indrive, they charge you

tojahh:


Make we just dey thank God.

BAZ001:


Yes, make we just dey thank God ooh
it’s better than selling gala and biggi cola in hot sun…
You get to seat in AC car and move to your own house in 1 year

Kudos to all veterans and newbies

On Bolt that's not a problem. Cos u aren't the one paying for the traffic. I still did a trip today from marina to ketu 9k, Maryland to Opebi 2,400 etc. One of the many reasons I stick with Bolt even with the 25% commission. One can easily meet his target even during winter on Bolt, so truly I see no reason I will go n be fasting and praying to make trips on Indrive and Rida.
What u guys should do is find a way around the Driver Score thing and u will just be using Indrive as backup

I like to avoid traffic. That's why I start around 10am, when 3MB don reduce for traffic. I go to lekki, then back to mainland, then to lekki again and back to mainland......by then it will be around 3pm or so. All the rest trips will be around Yaba, UNILAG, shomolu, surulere, onike/iwaya, etc. Around 7/8pm, I don make 20k, with 5k fuel. It's ok for me. No DS, No cancellation fee, no commission. I also get to choose where I want to go. At times I don't make up to it, but I'm ok.

Bless up

pope191:


I think by now we should be over this and everyone should do what works for them. No app is worthy of loyalty. Mariner to Ketu if not Ikosi, is two dead end zone. Who still goes to Mariner? I came out 5pm today and did 18k, not that I didn't see trip to make more, but I am so satisfied with that.

NB : once they finish Berger road and no traffic as it is now, I hope the surge will still be there.

Pearl1910:
.

But Pope this 18k from 5pm on a day like yesterday, hmmmm...na magic u do? The Indrive that I know before u make 4k u must cross thirdmainland bridge or U go Ojo/Alaba/Tradefair. If u r on island u must cross bridge again or u reach Sangotedo.
I think U where just lucky, it's not a normal thing.

Pearl1910:


Mariner is sweet, end your trip on the bridge and collect your money. Don't drop anybody on the main road, either enter other small streets on d left or chook head like u want to enter one of the car parks and drop passenger and move.
But me if it's afternoon, I enter car park either the one opposite UBA or Oando. Pay N500 for car park, set destination back to Berger or Akute. There's always Surge from afternoon, no how u will not get trip of 7k back to d mainland within 1hour. Inside car park u have peace of mind. And the trip u will carry will cover all your cost and time.
The problem with most of us is that we don't want to spend any money, we don't want to pay commission, we don't want to pay small car park money, so drivers prefer to be driving round, giving themselves HBD or hypertension and eventually still fall for lastma or taskforce and pay high fines.

I finally got one of these korope move car, the man stays just around my neighborhood, indriver is the best ehailing app I must say.

Just the feature of the driver seeing where the rider is heading to makes it very special.and most of all... Allocating the trip request to every driver online makes it outstanding.

How do you handle a rider eating in the car. Some unilag students entered my car and started eating Amala.

At first, I didn't complain even when I wasn't cool with it, not until I started touching soup on my glove box.

I had to change it for the guy eating at the front seat that it was improper to just enter my car and start eating Amala.

That's how they all flared up saying this is the first time a Bolt driver will talk to them like that. I had to shout them down too cause I can't be intimidated by crowd of three people.

The guy at the back tried to apologize for it but the lady beside him told him not to try it. That why would he apologize to me. Women!

Please, where una dey see these drivers that allow and tolerate all nonsenses?

Some Uber/Bolt drivers are actually very stupid and deserve to die in a car crash.


If I wanted to be difficult, I would have insisted he paid for the damage yesterday, because it was clearly his fault.

To all drivers, don't allow your greed be the end of you.

But if you don't value your life, you can go ahead and take unnecessary and pointless risks, all in the name of meeting "target".

You still won't be rich. You will be running circles in poverty. So why the risk?

I hope someone learns from this.

How can you be driving while you are tired and sleeping on the steering? Are you that greedy?

You cannot make all the money in the world while driving for Bolt/Uber. So why the risk?

I was hit by a driver yesterday night by around 2am while on my way home. I wasn't speeding, only for me to hear gbam! behind my car.

When I came down to check the damage, I couldn't even fight him, because his own car somersaulted and the damage was madt. It was a miracle he didn't die yesterday.

I was angry and felt pity for the slowpoke at the same time. The damage on my car was minimal so I decided to leave the driver alone.

Amala ke...I allow jollof rice or fried rice or snacks but anything with flowing oil like soup or rice and stew, I just politely tell them "sorry it's not allowed, u may stain the seat unknowingly or bad road can shake the car and pour ur soup".
Respect is reciprocal, if they don't respect you, end the trip and ask them to request another ride. There is a kind of surprise/shock riders get when a driver just ends their trip, sometimes they are speechless, it hits them in a different way.

Welz:

I remember I once picked up a rider, immediately I started the trip she asked me to turn off my radio, I reduced it and she said I should turn it off, I just reversed and told her to request for another ride, how can I drive 1hr plus in silence. music helps to withstand traffic.
